Campus Visit Programming

Virtual Visits

Out of an abundance of caution and to prioritize the health and safety of our guests and campus, Iowa State University has made a few changes to our campus visit experiences due to the continuous spread of COVID-19.

We will continue to offer virtual visits with options ranging from daily virtual visits, transfer virtual visits, and specially designed programming for admitted students.

We will also be offering special interest sessions and virtual student-led campus tours. Check out our virtual visits page for more information. Schedule a Virtual Visit

 

 

On-Campus Visits

Our on campus visit options are very limited, and all guests will be required to wear a face covering while on campus. In order to accommodate as many guests as possible, we are limiting each guest to only bringing one visitor with them on their visit. We appreciate your understanding as we continue to prioritize the health and safety of our staff, students, and visitors. Schedule an On-Campus Visit

Big career focus. Small campus feel. 

We can’t wait for you to fall in love with our nationally recognized campus as you take a look around at where your adventure might happen. 

This type of visit includes:

  • Enrollment presentation 
  • Campus tour
  • Residence hall tour

On most weekdays, we can arrange a visit with an advisor or professor in the academic area of your choice.

Registration Information

Whether you’re interested in the Honors Program, ROTC, or Women in Science and Engineering, our Daily Campus Visits can be customized with special sessions just for you. 

To provide the best campus visit experience, we ask that all prospective students register individually. Make sure to make a reservation within five days before your visit date so we can get things ready for you.
